"What do you mean he didn't say it back?" Amy's voice rose in pitch as she was in the aisle across from me grabbing items off the shelf.

We were at the local pharmacy the following morning after I'd woken up to see Masky gone.

Considering I didn't want to even entertain the thought of getting pregnant, I'd asked Amy to follow me to the pharmacy so I could pick up some plan b, as well as some other necessities before we went to school.

I shrugged even though she couldn't see me, "he just didn't. Maybe he doesn't feel the same."

"I'm surprised you already said it since you weren't sure you even liked him just a week ago."

"Can you blame me? I was forced to make a deal with some demon king. It doesn't even feel real sometimes."

"Yeah, life feels too normal now, huh?"

"Well, I wouldn't say that," I dropped a box of tampons into the basket I was carrying as Amy rounded the aisle and came up to me, chewing gum.

"In any case, I think you should talk to him about it."

I shrugged again and we made our way to the cashier with our items.

I can't believe I told him I love him.

In truth, I felt like an idiot. I didn't mean to say it so quickly, really, but when it slipped out I was hoping he would reciprocate my feelings.

I wanted to take it back after the fact but unfortunately, I couldn't.

In a way, I had expected him to say it back. Maybe to him I was just someone he could get a different kind of pleasure from.

The fact that he'd said he'd never had sex before was a little strange to me and I still had a hard time wrapping my head around it considering he seemed to know what he was doing.

I was his first. The thought made me wonder what he saw in me that he felt I was the right person to do it with. Or was he just not lucky with girls?

I sighed as the cashier rang my items up, eyeing the plan b in my hands with distaste.

At least it's not a pregnancy test.

I paid for the items after she told me the total and once everything was in paper bags, Amy and I exit the pharmacy and got in her car.

As she turned the key in the ignition and pulled out of the parking lot she raised a brow at me, "he did say that you two are dating though?"

"More or less."

"Mm," I could see her narrowing her eyes as she turned the steering wheel, "he sucks at communicating."

"He does right?" I groaned in agreement and sank lower into my seat.

"Yeah, but considering Hoodie seems to be his closest friend I'm not surprised. That guy has no social skills whatsoever."

I chuckled at that, "yeah, I wonder how he's doing."

"He seems to be doing just fine since he won't stop stalking me."
